A New Level of Power A Efficiency

The new M7 coprocessor works in tandem with the A7 chip to make magic. It has been designed to specifically measure motion data from the accelerometer, gyroscope, and compass. Fitness apps which track physical activity can easily access that data from the M7 coprocessor without constantly engaging the A7 chip, freeing it up considerably. It even requires less battery power.The M7 knows exactly when you’re running, walking, or even driving! For example, Maps switches from driving to walking turn-by-turn navigation if, you park and continue on foot. Because the M7 can tell when you are in a moving vehicle, the phone won’t ask you to join Wi-Fi networks as you walk by some. The Co-processor even identifies your phone not being moved for a while, says for when you are asleep. It reduces network pinging to conserve battery life.
